The prices are starting to drop...... Grocery Outlet has turkeys for 40 cents/lb if you spend $50 or more Albertsons has their signature select turkeys for 39 cents/lb.

Definitely nice to see these low prices on turkeys this soon before T-Giving. We'll probably end up with 3 in the 13-15 lb range in the freezer for later cooks, and do a fresh one for T-Giving. Speaking of that, anyone here have a good bourbon brine recipe?

It came out fine. Sorry, no pics. Doing one on the rotisserie is the way to go. Just put a charcoal basket full of briquettes on each side and cook away. The actual cook time will vary, but a 13-15 lb bird will be done in 2-2.5 hrs. The main thing is check the baskets after 1 hr and add...

The frozen turkeys are now starting to show up in the supermarkets. Wal-Mart has the Jenny O birds for $0.84/LB. Not bad. I think the Butterball birds are $0.97/LB. We just got a 14.8 LB Jenny O earlier this week and it will go on the rotisserie in the Performer later today. Prices should...

I did the same. Picked up 3 twin packs on Labor Day Weekend so that will be it until it goes on sale again. The first sale is usually around Easter.

Yup. That's the I go to. Thanks for posting that! I need to buy a few twin packs so I'll be in good shape until Memorial Day Weekend.

Hello all, I just got the Costco sales flier that goes from 8/25 to 9/21 and I didn't see any ads for K-Pro or the Kirkland Charcoal. Not surprising since if it is going to go on sale, it will likely be for just the Labor Day Weekend period. I'm going to Costco that Friday so I'll report back...

FYI. I was in Costco yesterday and they did not have K-Pro on sale. It was the usual price of $22.99. Maybe it will go on sale for Memorial Day Weekend?

I was going to pick up some of the Kirkland charcoal today, but didn't have enough room in the car since I had to get a bunch of Miracle gro, manure, etc. So will probably get 4 bags next Fri as I want to give it an extended tryout this summer.

I tried a bag of the Kirkland charcoal last year and it worked just fine. I was going to get more, but when I went again, they were out of stock.

They are. I was in Costco a couple weeks ago and they had it in stock.

It was still on sale as of Thursday. I think it ends tomorrow. Not to worry as they'll probably have it on sale again in time for the Memorial Day Weekend...

My headlamp!! With it now getting dark at 5:15, it's only going to get worse until we get to Winter Solstice. I can't wait for Winter Solstice because then you know that the days WILL be getting longer, and then in about 2 1/2 months I can put away the damm headlamp. Though the one silver...

Thanks Chris. It's nice to have a "safe" place where we can discuss everything BBQ and grilling related, and be free from politics. Much appreciated!

My youngest son is like this. In T-Ball he batted and throwed left-handed. Then in Farm division (ages 6-7) he said he wanted to start throwing and batting right-handed because he felt more comfortable doing that. He did and never looked back. He began his freshman yr in HS in late August...
